Job Dissatisfaction and Its Impact on Sleep

Abstract

Job dissatisfaction is a significant workplace issue that affects employees' well-being and productivity, often leading to sleep disturbances caused by physiological and psychological stressors. Research suggests a strong association between job dissatisfaction and sleep-related problems. This systematic review explores the relationship between job dissatisfaction and its impact on sleep quality. A comprehensive search was conducted across multiple databases, including Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, PubMed, EBM Reviews, Academic Search Complete, Web of Science, SOC Index, and Google Scholar, to identify relevant studies. Job dissatisfaction is primarily a psychological phenomenon influenced by various workplace factors such as workload, time commitment, office environment, workplace violence and harassment, and levels of empowerment and support at work. These factors contribute to stress, anxiety, and other mental health issues, ultimately leading to sleep disturbances. This review systematically identifies and summarizes the literature on job dissatisfaction and its impact on sleep, highlighting the importance of addressing workplace stressors to improve employees' overall well-being and sleep quality.
